To someone who knows nothing, this article says that Serie A is not a football championship but a diving, corruption and boredom championship instead.

Really? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

I thought it was very anti-English when I was reading it. Very, very funny overall, though.

No. Would it? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) I mean, all ancestors come from one single place, the very beginning. So why would that be rude?

It is bad for both sides but the negative hits about Italian football really hurt. I don't think it's funny myself but anyway.

Come on man, lighten up!

Yeah, it takes digs at Serie A, but who cares? It's basically labelling everyone in England alcoholic hooligans who watch talentless players built on nothing but speed and strength.. who cares? It's a joke, it's meant to be funny.

9) In England, if SKY Sports says that Peter Crouch is the best player in the world, the whole country believes and preaches it. In Italy, if SKY Italia says that Simone Loria is the best defender on the planet, the whole nation cancels their satellite subscription.

HA! That one was my favorite.

Well use a smiley or something, I'm getting confused!
It seems like the old bluesummers went out the window and now there's a Mourinho fanboy in here instead.

And I sure hope I'm completely wrong about that, eh?
